Hollis by The Bantams Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sitting on the stairs outside of your house
Thoughts compounded by the summer air
One more time to get you around
Circle none of it was fair
[Pre-Chorus]
Three hundred steps away and this block just doesn't change
Just the street signs and the feelings I subconsciously awaken
A narcoleptic night, another glimpse of fright
But there's comfort in the things I've done a thousand times
[Chorus]
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
One last time, there's no rhyme or reason
Let's go set the underground alight
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
Circumstance there's no need for treason
Break away from younger us tonight
[Verse 2]
Quiet in a basement
Feels so empty with no sounds there
Archbishop's in the next town
Another Sunday here with the Lord's Prayer
[Pre-Chorus]
Forty miles away and this block just doesn't change
Just the street signs and the memories I constantly go back to
An insomniac night, another glimpse of fright
But theres comfort doing all the things the way you used to
[Chorus]
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
One last time, there's no rhyme or reason
Let's go set the underground alight
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
Circumstance there's no need for treason
Break away from younger us tonight
[Chorus]
We were lying down there in the backseat of your moms' (I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this)
Car with the Radio on we were singing along (One last time, there's no rhyme or reason)
Oh the Good Lord knows we were singing along (Let's go set the underground alight)
Give me a laugh and a smile and you just look away and I should (I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this)
Leave right now but there's a reason that I just gotta stay (Circumstance there's no need for treason)
I gotta stay now that Hollis is gone (Break away from younger us tonight)
And we were lying down there in the backseat of your moms' (I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this)
Car with the Radio on we were singing along (One last time, there's no rhyme or reason)
Oh the Good Lord knows we were singing along (Let's go set the underground alight)
Give me a laugh and a smile and you just look away and I should (I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this)
Leave right now but there's a reason that I just gotta stay (Circumstance there's no need for treason)
So darling don't you prove me wrong (Break away from younger us tonight)
Sitting on the stairs outside of your house
Thoughts compounded by the summer air
One more time to get you around
Circle none of it was fair
[Pre-Chorus]
Three hundred steps away and this block just doesn't change
Just the street signs and the feelings I subconsciously awaken
A narcoleptic night, another glimpse of fright
But there's comfort in the things I've done a thousand times
[Chorus]
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
One last time, there's no rhyme or reason
Let's go set the underground alight
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
Circumstance there's no need for treason
Break away from younger us tonight
[Verse 2]
Quiet in a basement
Feels so empty with no sounds there
Archbishop's in the next town
Another Sunday here with the Lord's Prayer
[Pre-Chorus]
Forty miles away and this block just doesn't change
Just the street signs and the memories I constantly go back to
An insomniac night, another glimpse of fright
But theres comfort doing all the things the way you used to
[Chorus]
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
One last time, there's no rhyme or reason
Let's go set the underground alight
I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this
Circumstance there's no need for treason
Break away from younger us tonight
[Chorus]

I gotta stay now that Hollis is gone (Break away from younger us tonight)
And we were lying down there in the backseat of your moms' (I'm done I'm done I'm done I don't need this)

Oh the Good Lord knows we were singing along (Let's go set the underground alight)
